It’s with great enthusiasm that over the past 20 years I have had the chance to watch young people’s lives change through the power of camp as they discover their ‘best selves!’ As the executive director it’s my duty to provide leadership and support for all of the camp’s operations to ensure our programs are the highest quality, fully develop young staff and campers, and incorporate our strategic plan. Prior to my role as executive director I held positions as senior operations director, environmental education director and at Wisconsin Lions Camp. I look forward to continuing to serve at camp where the strength of our programs and staff develops confident, independent and character driven leaders. It’s my honor to steward the Spirit of Minikani for continued generations of campers and staff.

Hello Camp Families. Summer 2025 will mark my 12th year at Camp Minikani. In addition to working with all of our amazing camp families regarding their camper’s accounts, I also work behind the scenes to ensure that your registration and paperwork experience is the best that it can be. Additionally, I work with other office staff members to ensure our processes are efficient.
When not working, I enjoy spending time with my dogs and volunteer for a local dog rescue. I also enjoy spending my free time reading a good murder mystery or comedy book. In the summer, I enjoy lounging by the pool and spending time on the lakes of Wisconsin.

My name is Anna Rooney (she/her), and I’m the Summer Camp Director at Minikani! I started coming to camp in 2009, when I was 8 years old. Since then, I’ve met my biggest role models, my best friends, and the coolest campers and LTs ever. I enjoy being outside, camping, reading, writing, drawing, cooking, and trying out new things as often as I can, like birding! I was born in Waukesha, WI but spent most of my childhood in Birmingham, AL. From there, I went to college in Florida at USF (go bulls!) where I graduated with a B.A. in Political Science as well as Women’s and Gender Studies in 2023. Now I’m back in Wisconsin to do the best job in the world! This will be my 8th summer on staff, in which time I have been a counselor, Day Camp Director, LT Director, and Assistant Summer Camp Director. I’m very excited to make our summer program safe, fun, and rewarding as possible for our campers!

Hello! My name is Paige (she/her) and I am the Director of Education and Conferences here at Minikani. Before to stepping into this role in 2025, I served as an outdoor program instructor at Minikani and worked as a camp counselor at various camps across the United States.

I work as the office admin at Minikani. I began this adventure in April 2016. Since then, I have been drawn to Minikani’s beautiful outdoors. Experiencing Minikani’s summer fun between counselors and campers makes my role at camp truly worthwhile. In my free time, I enjoy bringing out the colors of summer through gardening. My other hobbies include photography, drawing, watching sunsets from my porch and spending time with my horse and other pets.

Hello, all:
I have been a part of the maintenance team at Camp Minikani since 2014. I love working outdoors, and Minikani is the place to be for that. Prior to coming to camp, I worked behind a desk in an engineering capacity. I thoroughly enjoy the opportunity of making camp a safe and fun-filled experience for visitors.
